When people have discussions in other peoples fs threads, i agree that’s very counterproductive and i think every seller would be upset. But statements like sick car etc. aren’t meaningless to me at all. I think most people appreciate it.

I also understand people taking things too far, but i also think completely banning comments made in fs threads just loses the “community” feel of the forum. If someone posts in car chat saying something like "Hey guys check out my sweet crx _dont have the pic_, i for one would think something along the lines of _wtf_. So i don’t think it needs to be a problem in the fs section.
